A post from me finally.... it seems like ages ago since....

MY LAST REAL HOLIDAY! ArgHHH.... My few weeks consist of going to work at 9am and reaching home at 9.30pm. Sux totally! Awful.... don't have much time to spend it with my friends. However, I managed to squeeze in some activites in between so its not so bad... I guess.

Anyway, lots of stuff have happen. With my poor memory, I think I have forgotten 3/4 of the events. So I shall just blog about those more memorable ones. Firstly, my results were okie. As always, not the result I wanted but hell, at least I pass everything huh? SO.... good bye Ngee Ann! Welcome SIM. I have already apply for SIM and they are waiting for my final year grades to be handed up to them. It seems Candy did not know we apply. Haha, she scold me on why I did not tell her anything! Basically its because I thought a lot of people would have known that! Anyway, it seems YS is already studying in SIM. Good thing our timing is different and we are taking different course. CoolZ!

Secondly, stupid Felix, Barry and Liang Jie pull a stunt on me! Oh man.... they told me Ah Liang fail his BB. I was like "what the....?!??". I mean if some of the people in my class which I expect them to fail pass everything why Ah Liang fail?! Ya.... me being such a nice girl, comfort that bloody Ah Liang from 11pm to 12am then continue from 1am to 3am!!! ArgHHHH!!! I had been working the whole day and they pull such a prank on me. Its only the next day that they finally confess. It seems....
1) Ah Liang did not fail
2) They actually reherse to get the "lines" right complete with script on what to do. Script is thought up of and written by non other then our dear old Barry. You can count on him to be in cahoots with whatever plots Felix has. They are tight I tell you.... Seem so gay for guys to be as close as they are. Hahahaaa~
3) Mastermind? Felix! He is the one who said " Throw away your conscious and carry out the plot all the way!"
Wow.... thnx a lot Felix.
It seems this is a plot for me to go out together with them since I have not met up with them after I had a job. Furthermore, they are going to NS soon so time is precious for them. Funny thing is, they actually feel gulity about it. LolX! They treat me to a lunch. I ate a bowl of yummy beef ramen plus a cup of lime juice. cost about 9 bucks. Hehe.... think Ah Liang felt gulity too cause he lend me MyHime disc! Keke.... I actually gain from this prank they pull on me. They had their laughs.... hell did they laugh. Ah Liang was super convincing as a "failed" candidate for the exam. HaiZ.... I am sometimes too gullible for my own good. Learned my lesson. Once bitten twice shy!

Thirdly, I finally had a KTV session with my friends! With only Felix, Barry, Ah Liang and me. Hahhaahh~ Seems pathetic? Well.... it is, LolX.... its just some last minute thing we thought up of. We met up after I finished work( yes I even work on Saturdays *groans*). We ate lunch before they accompany me to return the disc I rented. They were grumbling, sighing and mocking me along the way. Keke.... they say I con them into going to the shop by exaggerating about the animes they have. Well.... I guess sometimes I overdo my descriptions of things. Ahahah~ IN the end I rented DN Angel and ES as recommended by the anime king Ah Liang We were thinking what to do after that when I said something random like going KTV to sing. LolX.... Felix DARED me! He said if he goes I have to go. I said coolZ.... if he go I go. Thats how we ended up at Clemetic Partyworld and spend 35 bucks. LoLX.... Barry and Felix were on FIRE! They sang, imitate and even had some dance moves( dance moves is only true for Felix). Felix rapping is good I must say. Hahha~ Barry is good at singing Marcy Gray and Aerosmith. LolX.... He nearly scream his head off when he was singing Aerosmith " I don't wanna miss a thing". I was..... hmmm.... choosing songs! I sang once in a while but ..... my singing sucks to not much to talk about that. Ah Liang? He was busy recording our voice using his handphone. He did not sing until I force the microphone to his face and he sang. Hehe~ It was fun all in all. Really nice. Hehe...

Lastly, another East Coast trip with them. This time there is a new additional member JunZ! Hahha~ she miss our last bicycle outing. So this time we managed to get her. LolX.... it was sooo fun! Felix, Ah Liang, JunZ and me are beginners for roller blading. I fell twice *ouch*. Spend about 1 1/2 hour before JunZ and me give up. My knee was hurting and I don't know why. JunZ just feel tired and wanna rest. The pros like Barry and Geraldine continue blading while newbies like Felix and Ah Liang try to learn till that full two hours is up. We rented bicycles after that. It was so so nice. We stop at the jetty and feel the sea breeze. We spend about half an hour at the jetty! LolX.... we talk crap and about what we are going to eat for dinner. Well, from this trip I have concluded....
1) I hate to blade over bumps. HATE IT! Basically cause I cannot do it. =(
2) Cycling is a more fun option for me... for now....
3) We should take picture of this trips! I am so gonna steal my bro's camera for the next trip. Keke.....
3) I love this kinda trips and I hope we can have different activities everytime! Maybe the sentose trip that Geraldine suggested can be thought over?! Hahahah~ *super big HINT*

End of my long long post. Hahhaah~ took me half an hour to write all this! Whew~ hope you guys managed to last till here. ThnX for reading too. Ahahha~ Came home early from work today. Took me some time to find the nearest bus stop. Hahha~ I am so spolit by my boss. They drive me to and from job cause we live in the same block. Today is the first day I went home by myself. Ahahah~ No work tomorrow ..... so it seems I can enjoy myself! Now I treasure whatever breaks I have and is given. Will be meeting Geraldine and JunZ at SIM to pass up our grades. HaiZ.... I really need a break. SIM starts school in July. My work is not much fun. Its darn boring. I am also expected to know everything even thought this is the 3rd week of working. BlehZ..... aHH.... don't care already. Updated my wish list again. Had some things cancel out. Finally bought my jacket from 77th street. Kat is a member there so she managed to help me save 8 bucks! Ahhh.... don't you just love this ger? Hehe~ she did not mind that Felix, Barry and Ah Liang was tagging along. ThnX! After canceling the things I had bought, new things were added! LolX..... that is so me... with more $$$ earn, now I want more things! Greedy people like me will not be so easily satisfacted. We just want more and more! Ahahah~ Change my background music too. Think you guys should be quite bored with Avril Lavigne. Hahha..... so.... I now its Good Charlotte "Lifestyle of the Rich and the Famous". Darn good song! The lyrics is very meaningful too. Have time go check out the lyrics. Keke..... kk..... thats all!

Will enjoy myself today.... sleep early wake up late! >_<

My week.... it was fun! Lets DO it again!

Spend a really good week this time. Done lots of things I have not done for a long time! Well, let me give you guys a brief overview. Hehe....

Lets start off with Wednesday. Went to work for my admin job. So bloody boring~BUT... gets me my money. HaiZ.... working really sux. I wrote receipts from 11.45am to 5pm. WahHHH~ I nearly went mad. In between I did some collection of payments and making phone calls. However at least there is another person to accompany me this time. HAha its a guy from Ngee Ann Poly too! LolX... while writing receipts we crap around lor. Make the work so much easier and time pass faster too. The guy went off earlier at 7pm. Me as usual, reached home at 9.45pm cause I was waiting for the boss to finish up and send me home =D. The only thing I like about this job is the free transportation. LolX... the boss lives on the same block as me so they send me to work all the time! Ain't that coolZ?! I think it is. Lala~ Save a lot on transportation cost. A sad fact though is that.... I still don't know how to get there on bus -_-!! So if one day the boss say I have to go by myself, I am dead. I will be lost. HaiZ.... hope that will not happen....

On to Thursday! Well.... Thursday was suppose to meet Geraldine and JunZ at 11.30am to apply for SIM. We have decided to apply for their Business Adminstration course. Well.... I woke up at 11.30am that day... -_-!! I was in a frenzy when I woke up and saw my alarm clock. It was a good thing JunZ call my home or else I would have continue sleeping. Man.... I am such a pig. I bath, change my clothes all in record time and was out of the door at 12pm. I ran all the way from my house to the bus stop and was juz in time to catch bus 75. Was panting like hell. People would have thought I just ran the marathon. Miraculous I reached SIM at 12.20pm. Hehe~ thats how it is for living near to schools. So I finally apply for SIM. Dear Geraldine and JunZ help me to take the queue number. Haha... thnx ah!

After that was to go for our cycling outing! I was so looking forward to it. Its been ages since I cycle at East Coast. Poor JunZ cannot join us though. She said her mom has grounded her for NEARLY losing her phone. Like that also can get grounded leh. Her mom don't know why this time so strict. In the end only Geraldine, Barry, Felix, Liang Jie and me went. It was damn fun lor! We taugh Felix how to cycle and now he is a pro! Congrats Felix! Hahha... We also stop by at the jetty to feel the wind blowing. Ahhhh.... it was so so nice. All of us agree on that. Geraldine roller blade half way for the cycling session. She is quite good at it leh! Well... our group has decided we wanna learn roller blade for our next outing! YEA! I also wanna learn. It was a fun day even thought we keep losing our way -_-!! It seems the guys sense of direction is just as bad as mine which is not much to say about. We actually spend more time walking then cycling. AHAHAHAH~ We ate our dinner at Kenny Rogers. Yum yum, it was nice. I had a quarter chicken with 2 side dishes. We crap a lot while eating dinner and on the way home Felix started doing his dance! We laugh like hell. Felix is .... damn "coolZ" when he dance. He will dance backward, forward sideways and his hand actions.... totally memorable. LolX.... It was great spending the day with you guys. ThnX!

Yesterday met up with Ah ying cause its after her exams. That girl make me take LRT to Choa Chu Kang to lend her my Shaman King disc. She say cause she is my BEST BUDDY so I have to do that.... HaiZ... that bloody fellow. Well... in the end I went with her to Clementic. We ate our lunch, went Big Bookshop. Went to Jurong East popular. I bought 100 CD-R and also bought 3 disc holder with pics of the Loony Toons that is so adorable I could not resist buying! I spend 45 bucks on that Popular trip. SOBZ~ my heart aches..... Ah ying bought only 2 of the Loony Toons CD holder. After that we went to the Jurong East Library. It was the first time I ever went there since .... Sec 2! The library is damn nice. I really love the decor. We found some comics and spend the rest of our time reading the comics. Hehe~ I read Zits while she read Calvin and Hobbs. Zits is so nice so I borrow one of it home. I reach home at about 6pm. Hahahahah! I told my mom I was only going to give something to my friend and go home. My mom is never gonna believe me man. I spend 5 hours juz giving something to Ah Ying. LolX...

Later going out with my TB08 class. Amanda and Olivia could not make it. HaiZ.... so long have not seen them. Sunday gonna work.... and also pay day! Something for me to look forward to. Hehe~

I am at the crossroad no more. My mind is made up ... And everything makes sense again ...

Finally went to SIM with JunZ and Geraldine today. We were still pondering over whether to go for the Bachelor Of Marketing or Bachelor of Business Adminstration. In the end we weren't given much choice! Firstly as Bachelor of Marketing is still a relatively new course, we have to wait for a year to enrol for it! I don't wanna wait and the same goes for JunZ and Geraldine.

They have also thought about Bachelor in Economics & Finance but it kinda turn them off when they found out...... its like studying IEF and IM for two bloody years! So.... its a no NO NO NO! We all remember the struggles of IEF and IM. The images that appear in our mind ain't nice ...... So its decided! We are going for the Bachelor of Business Adminstration!

However I am facing a dilemma. I don't know what specialization I wanna take now. There is marketing, business finance, human resource and Entrepreneurship. Once again, I have to choose. For me its either marketing or human resource. My family memebers have been telling me human resource is good as it is easy to find a job. Every company will have a human resource department so jobs will be easy to come by. When I think about it, it makes sense. Then for marketing, its a good choice which I think I have interest in but its very demanding. Man.... I have to decided by......... Thursday! ARgHHHH~ SianZ....

Tomorrow will be working again. Thursday will be going cycling. I suggested it. Hahha.... I think I have been spending too much money leh. So find some cheaper alternatives to spend time with my buddies. LoLX it seems my buddies they all are quite ok with the idea of cycling. Hehe~ Friday will be meeting ah ying to pass her the disc. Saturday will be free. Sunday will be working. Ahhh.... seems like my week is pretty full.

Now my Sunday's are quite sianZ. Have to wake up at 7am to go market before preparing to go to work at 9.10am. There is only one thing I can don't complain about this job. Transportation is free for the time being since the boss is my neighbour. So they drive me to work. Ahhhh~ thats the only good part.

Well..... good news for today! My room PC internet is working again! YEA! Finally! It has revive..... AND my MSN is also finally working too! Yesterday it had a few problems but I managed to repair the problems. Ahahh!!

Bad news? I am still stuck at esp 32 of Naruto. Its so damn bloody hard to get my hands on that esp. My room's chair back rest is broken. SO I can sit on the chair but I cannot lean back -___-!! I am so use to leaning back that I almost fall off a few times. HaiZ... hope my dad will repair it soon.

Okie thats all.... better take an early rest for tomorrow's work. HMmm... so not looking forward to it. LolX.....

my new blogskin done by......*drum rolls* Geraldine!

YepZ.... its so nicely done! With Jimmy Liao's drawing as the theme. She is damn good with it. I have been looking for a nice Jimmy Liao's blogskin for sometime but without much success. NOW I have it! Yea! Nice nice. ThnX Geraldine!

Gonna sleep soon. Just came back from a steamboat session from my Class TB08 at 11pm. I am tired and bloated. LolX.... serves me right for eating so much. HaiZ... greedy me. Only 8 people could make it today. Hahha~ quite a small group. HOWEVER it seems that we gonna have a bbq at Hong Wei's house the next week! LOlX... I am gonna get so sick of BBQ soon. I feel like pucking today from all the food I ate at Marine.

Tomorrow is a busy day for me. Gonna be visiting Grandmom's grave before I can go to Mixin's BBQ party. Think we gonna have fun for the BBQ thing. Its like a TB31 reunion. Ain't that nice?! Its been ages since we have this kinda thing... hehe~

The semi-rich girl is gonna resurface again! *grins*

Just receive a phone call from my boss. They will be needing me every Sunday's and from 18th- 26th May! So that means..... money rolling in! I can almost feel the money in my hands....

I like to work like that. Firstly I will have time to do other stuff. Secondly, I can go out with my friends. Thirdly, I am gonna study before I go out to work. I have decided to study after some considerations. My mom advised me to. She said that I wouldn't wanna go back to studying after I start work. Furthermore, I can borrow a study loan from my dad and pay back little by little. However, if I work and then study, I will have to pay everything myself which will be more taxing on myself. SO to conclude! By working on weekends, I can rest but still earn money even thought its not much. This is a good time for me to rest however much I want before I start studying again. YepZ.... this is the best arrangement for me.

Been packing my things for the whole of today. So many things! OMG... the amount of rubbish, the cleaning. So far, I have only managed to clear my table, shelves and some of the cupboards. Stil have a freaky long way to go! I'll get back to it when I have the time.... which won't be anytime soon. Haha~ I am booked for the whole of this week. Tomorrow having steamboat, Saturday having BBQ and Sunday working. Lala~ busy busy busy.

Oh yepZ.... I am stuck on Naruto esp 32! Fuck..... it is at one of those exciting part where they gonna fight! Rock Lee just used his special skill and he is tired. The enemy took this time to attack him. That was the end of esp 31. When I tried to watch esp 32 it could not read! ArgHhhHHHH! Its driving me mad not knowing what will happen at esp 32. Driving me MAD! Man.... I need the esp 32 !!!!

So I was having anime withdrawn sypmtons. I decided to watch Ragnarok. It wasn't very good. Did not get me interested to watch what is gonna happen next. HaiZ..... the El Hazard I had was quite ok. Except for one thing..... it has chinese subtitles! ArgHHH! Its like a nightmare for me to read that. I could not catch up at all. HaiZ.... so sadZ.....

I am having anime withdrawn sypmotons.... some one help me ...... well.... thats all... lala~

Decisions,decisions,decisions.... what a headache....

Application submission for schools will be due soon and I still don't know what I wanna do. Damn... this is really frustrating. I'll have to decide by this weekend or else thats it- I will have to work.

Singapore education system really sux. I have just finished my exams for 4 days?! Then now I have to make life changing decisions like that?! Working or studying first will really change how it will be for your future. Think about it. If you study now, you can have a higher pay and work for the rest of your freaky life till you retire. If you work first, are you still gonna study? Are you going to quit your job half way just to study? Are you going to study part-time? Will you even wanna study after you start working?! Decisions... so much to consider. So much I still don't know. HaiZ... JunZ ask me if I wanna look at the schools today and enrol. I nearly freak out. LoLx... I have not discuss with my parents at all! Not gonna make decisions without letting them know am I right? They will be paying my fees too. Furthermore, I would not wanna enrol for something due to some hasty decisions I make. No no.... that will be bad. Gonna think things through.

Been enjoying myself for these two days. Monday went out with Felix, Barry,Geraldine and JunZ plus her bf. It was quite a nice outing. Hehe.... we watch movies, eat and I bought things! Ya get this ! I bought things and my friend's started clapping their hands -_-!! . Quite pai seh leh...

Felix bought.... food for the whole day. Geraldine bought a strawberry shortcake doll which is really cute! I remember having a strawberry shortcake colouring book. LolX.... so long ago! I bought my "Nightmare Before Christmas" figurine! Yea! Finally! I did it! After thinking about it for like, 3 times of working past that shop. We had Long John Silver for lunch then proceed to buy Mixin's present. Hehe, hope she like it. We watched Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous. It was an ok show. Quite reasonable but I think the first one was better though. I'll give it a 3 out of 5 because Sandra Bullock is in there. Haha, I think she is so pretty. Ate at a Japanese restaurant for dinner. We chat in that restaurant for from 6.45pm till 9pm! HAhaa, quite fun. We talk crap on...... SY(all time fav since we saw her in year 3), peeing methods, SY, my wish list (its their current fav), army lots and lots of stuff. On our way to the MRT and bust station, I bought a pair of casual sandles from Charles & keith. Very pretty and fits me. It doesn't have heels at all, totally flat AND its brown in colour. LolX.... I really like brown colour shoes. It look nice on me... whahahah!

Went out with Kat yesterday. She bought lots of things so did I. Man... the amount of money I spend in this two days is eating into my pocket money. I earn $90 and I spend $110 in two days. How am I gonna save up money to buy my handphone??! I think that is like a never... I bought a watch, small bag and a pair of shoes yesterday. That put me back about $80 of my money including eating dinner. Socialising.... It sure needs hella lot of money to do that. Well... at leastI cancel out something from my wish list which is bought by myself. So people. Stop mocking me about my wish list!

Been thinking about the rest of the week and I realise. I still have lots of things to do this week and all of it concerns money! Will be having steam boat with my year 3 classmate then Saturaday go for Mixin's birthday BBQ party. Man.... I love socialising.... but the money! LoLx.... this sux. I will be broke by the end of this weekend. I'll bet on it. I can foresee the future.....

Gonna start packing my room. Its in a terrible terrible mess. It is still in the same chaotic condition as it is when I was having my exams. I just have not gotten the time to do it. Think I'll start now.

HMmm... weekend is coming soon.... I dread it....

Its all fated....

FIRST DAY OF WORKING TODAY! I am not excited or anything..... but well, I think I am one of the earliest to start work. LolX... me and my big mouth huh? I was still talking about " Wah... Candy and Amanda so good, have job. What about me?!?!". Now I am working, still not having time to watch the ever growing vcds and still having weird hours of eating(I miss lunch and dinner today) and sleeping. It seems my life have not really change. Except that ..... I am being paid by the hours! YEA! Feels good to have money in my hands once again. I have forgotten the feel of it..... till lately. I have getting quite a sum of money. Commission from Eco Adventures, pocket money from mom and my job. Lolx.... I hope my never ending money problems will stop and have money rolling into my pockets!

Hahah~ but guess what?!? It started flowing out of my pocket the day I got the commission from Eco Adventure. Firstly, I went to eat with my TB08 class at NYDC. That costs me 12 bucks for that meal. Next I spend it on anime rental services whereby we rent animes for a certain period of time. I got so overly excited about getting more animes that I sign up for their membership. That cost me ..... $30. NEXT, I had KFC for dinner. Cost me about $4. All in all? I spend nearly all of my money. Living expenses in Singapore really is high.

Will be going out with my buddies tomorrow. This means spending money! At least this time I know I have some extra money to spare. Anyway, I think I will finish using it by the end of this week. Because I need a pair of casual sandles. Mine looks a little wobbly. Need a pair of shorts too maybe jeans material kind? Then! I am gonna get the "Nightmare before Christmas" figurine I have been dying to get ... OH! Then I am gonna get the anime figurine I saw in comics connections.... well maybe if I still have extra cash I'll consider buying some nice clothings.... how about my K700i handphone? I'll save up for that..... I'll really like to buy.... *never ending list*..... loLX.... please forgive me people. I am like that. LoLX~
